SEBI bans Pacheli Industrial Finance Ltd and related firms from trading, suspecting a "pump and dump" scheme.

India's market regulator, SEBI, has banned Pacheli Industrial Finance Ltd and six related entities from trading after the company’s share price surged 372% in a month, reaching an abnormal P/E ratio of 400,000. SEBI suspects a "pump and dump" scheme, as the company showed negligible revenues over the last three years. The regulator halted trading and froze preferential allottees' shareholdings, raising questions about market manipulation.
